As the parent of a student-athlete, it is important that you understand NCAA rules and regulations that apply both to your child and yourself. Below are some guidelines that you should be aware of during your child's recruitment process and Rutgers career.
- Student-athletes have a pre-existing relationship with their parents. This means that parents that also serve as an athletic booster, or representative of Rutgers' athletics interests, are recognized by the university as a parent first and a booster second.
- Student-athletes and their parents may not agree to enter into an agreement with an agent (either verbally or in writing) during anytime that their son or daughter is a member of a Rutgers athletics team.
- Student-athletes, parents and relatives may not receive any extra benefits from a booster, an agent or anyone associated with an agent. Doing so could jeopardize the student-athlete's eligibility.
- Student-athletes and their parents may not receive any extra benefits due to the student-athlete's participation in athletics at Rutgers.
